There is no reason why PEX wouldn't work on a server which supports only monochrome visuals. Back in the early days there were two prototype PEX extensions which both worked just fine on monochrome. The people who wrote the PEX-SI, however, chose not to support monochrome display devices. It sounds from your message as if you are using SunPEX; I don't know whether that implementation supports monochrome or not. I would suspect not. Have you tried contacting Sun's customer support staff? -- -paul pmartz@dsd.es.com Evans & Sutherland
